Acoustic description of the soundscape of a real-life intensive farm and its impact on animal welfare: a preliminary analysis of farm sounds and bird vocalizationsGinovart Panisello, Gerardo JoséSoroll -- Control -- TFM004531/53462Poultry meat is the world’s primary source of animal protein due to the low cost andit is widely eaten at global level. However, intensive production is required to sup-ply the demand although it generates stress to animals and welfare problems whichhave to be reduced or eradicated for better birds health. In this study, bird wel-fare is measured by some indicators:CO2, temperature, humidity, weight, deaths,food and water intake. Additionally, we approach the acoustic analysis of the bird’svocalisations as a possible metric to add to the aforementioned parameters. Forthis purpose, an acoustic recording and analysis of an entire production cycle ofan intensive broiler Ross 308 poultry farm in the Mediterranean area has been per-formed. The acoustic dataset generated has been processed to obtain the EquivalentLevel (Leq), the mean Peak Frequency (PF) and the PF variation, every 30 minutes.This acoustical analysis aims to evaluate the relation between traditional indicators(death, weight andCO2) and acoustical metrics (equivalent level impact -Leq-, PeakFrequency - PF- ) of a complete intensive production cycle. As a results relationbetweenCO2and humidity versusLeqhas been found, as well as decrease in thevocalisation when the intake of food and water is large.La carne de aves de corral es la principal fuente mundial de proteína animal debidoa su bajo costo y es consumida ampliamente a nivel mundial. Sin embargo, se re-quiere una producción intensiva para abastecer la demanda aunque genera estrés alos animales y problemas de bienestar que deben ser reducidos o erradicados parauna mejor salud de las aves. En este estudio, el bienestar de las aves se mide me-diante algunos indicadores:CO2, temperatura, humedad, peso, muertes, ingesta dealimentos y agua. Adicionalmente, abordamos el análisis acústico de las vocaliza-ciones del ave como una posible métrica para sumar a los parámetros anteriormentemencionados. Para ello se ha realizado un registro y análisis acústico de todo elciclo de producción de una granja avícola de producción intensiva Ross 308 de pol-los broilers en zona mediterránea. El conjunto de datos acústicos generado ha sidoprocesado para obtener el Nivel Equivalente (Leq), la Frecuencia de Pico (PF) me-dia y la variación de PF, cada 30 minutos. Este análisis acústico tiene como objetivoevaluar la relación entre los indicadores tradicionales (muerte, peso yCO2) y métri-cas acústicas (impacto de nivel equivalente -Leq-, Frecuencia pico - PF-) de unaproducción intensiva durante un ciclo completo. Como resultado se encontró unarelación entreCO2y humedad versusLeq, así como una disminución en la vocal-ización cuando la ingesta de alimentos y agua es grande.Universitat Ramon Llull.
